About Me

My photo
I love romance and writing it is one of my greatest pleasures. Along with writing romance, I love sitting back and talking with authors that love romance just as much as I do. Since I've been reading romance since I was sixteen years old I am a book lover that still reads lots of books in a month. So, weekly I will also post my book picks. They may be picks that are new releases or maybe a favorite book of mine. On this blog you will see books featured by ALL romance genres.

Shades of Desire: LENA HART

 
Hello SASSE Readers, over the next 10 days I will be hosting a different author in the Shades of Desire into our SASSE World. Join me in learning more about these wonderful authors and their stories in this boxset. Ten titillating tales from USA Today, bestselling and award-winning authors. Step into the world of some of the freshest voices in romance; from spicy secrets to sweet second chances. Get enticed by your perfect shade of desire.
LENA HART BRINGS YOU...
HIS BEDPOST QUEEN
Athena Lewis has a sharp mind and an even sharper attitude. Except when it comes to “Davie,” the only man who’s ever truly made her feel safe. Yet to protect the only family she has left, she must embark on a mission that goes against everything she believes in, and that includes using the last trick she has left. Her body.

SASSE: Tell the readers a little about yourself. Why did you decide to be a part of Shades of Desire with your fellow authors?
 
SoD Author Lena: Well, I like to consider myself an author of romances with “incredible love and unforgettable passion.” My heroines are always strong yet slightly vulnerable black women and my heroes are sexy, alpha men who are never shy about going after the women they want. Through USA Today bestselling author Wendy Ely, I got a chance to be a part of this box set and feature one of my favorite couples in the set. It has been a blast—and an honor—to work with these 9 fabulous women. Writing can be solitary work so whenever I can get a chance to collaborate with other great authors, I’m all for it!

SASSE: How did you come up with this story? What is your story about?

SoD Author Lena: HIS BEDPOST QUEEN is about old friends who reunite under extreme yet sexy circumstances to eventually become lovers. The story follows the theme of the 4 card suits (clover, spades, heart, diamonds) and what each Queen of that suit represents. Since the Queen of Spades is known for her self-mastery, I came up with a heroine that best represented that and the story unfolded. Athena Lew, the heroine, is blackmailed into stealing from the hero, David Carrone, who is her childhood crush but things don’t go at all like she planned and she finds herself caught in her own web of deception.

SASSE:  Do you use celebrity inspiration for your characters? If so, who inspired your hero and heroine?  

SoD Author Lena: Yes, most times I do. I love to pull “celebrity-look-alikes” for my characters to help me better picture them and give others a point of reference as to who I’m thinking of could play my characters in a movie. I would say for my characters in HIS BEDPOST QUEEN, the celebrity-look-alikes would be Matt Bomer (White Collar) for my hero David, but with ink-black hair and piercing gray eyes. For my heroine, Athena, I imagine a young Aisha Tyler with all the attitude of Tyler’s character Lana Kane (Archer)—equipped with the husky voice, bangs, and thigh-high boots, lol.

SASSE: Is your story in the boxset part of a series? If it is, where does it fall in the line up?

SoD Author Lena: Yes, my story is book 2 in my Queen Quartette series and I chose to feature HIS BEDPOST QUEEN in the set because I believed it was a better start to the series for new-to-me readers to get a sense of my work and it had the perfect blend of sexy sweetness needed for our set. Though readers don’t have to read each story in the series in order, it’s much more fun if they do.

SASSE: For fun, tell the readers and interesting factoid about you?

SoD Author Lena: Because I love a good mystery, how about I give you two truths and a lie, lol.

1) I’m a Floridian who can’t drive
2) I spent the first 8 years of my life afraid of toasters—still not sure why I was, but to this day I don’t own a toaster, lol
3) Over 10 stories published—and many love scenes later—and I still blush and giggle over every love scene I write.
Can you guess which one is the lie? Check out my Amazon Author page for the truths. J

SASSE: Thank you SoD Author Lena, this has been just delightful to sit back with you and learn a little more about you and your story.

SoD Author Lena: Thank you, Yvette, for hosting me and my fellow box set authors this week on your blog! The whole journey has been a wild ride but a lot of fun and we’re all very much looking forward to release day. J

Another Amazing Release by Sienna Mynx...Paper Dolls


Hello SASSE Readers, let’s welcome the one and only Sienna Mynx to our SASSE World. It is spring and love is in the air, there’s not a better time for a romance writer I can think of. Now I get the great opportunity to sit back with one of my Scandalous sisters, sip some wine and chat.

SASSE: Sienna, you have been known for your Mafia men and dangerous, bad boy series, are you moving into a new genre of romance or something else?  

Sienna: I don’t know if this story moves me into a new genre. My most popular books are the bad boy mafia type stories. Yes I freely admit that. But I’ve written different kinds of women’s fiction and historical fiction in the past. The most comparable to Paper Dolls are my stories Before Sunrise, Bad Habits, Love After War. I think that as a writer one can exhaust themselves when just sticking to one type of story. After my last Battaglia book I needed the chance to tell the story of love from a different angle.

Buy it now!
SASSE:  How did this story come about? Where did you come up with the title Paper Dolls?

Sienna: The story was written in 2006 as a free blog story. It was based on three friends and their lives in the South Beach, Miami popular scene. I’m from Miami and always loved the flavor of my city and the fast lifestyle many people lived. It’s a juicy backdrop for some good storytelling. Fast-forward to today and the world of celebrity today and I find it very different from when I originally wrote the story. We have selfie-queens, over-hyped musicians and spoiled celebrities. I decided to delve into that TMZ world with my three ladies and see where the story could take us.

SASSE:  Tell us about the Paper Dolls book. Why did you decide to tell these three women’s stories in one? Is it an anthology?

Sienna: It is three stories that make up a whole story. So I consider it three books for the price of one. Paper Dolls focuses on the lives of a celebrity publicist, a fallen R&B singer, and a celebrity hair stylist who were college friends and formed a very strong bond when one of them reach fame. The story begins with a shattered marriage, a love triangle, and a woman who whose lost faith in the man she’s loved for years. It’s friendship that keeps the ladies strong and faith in the men in their lives that bring us all through the tale. 

SASSE:  What was the challenge of this book?

Sienna: The biggest challenge for me was keeping each woman’s tale different and unique. With the way social media tells us all the dirty secrets of celebrities constantly it’s hard to be surprised by anything in the world of fame and fortune. I constantly juggled between the human element of our ladies from the flash, ego-tripping world they lived in.

SASSE: If Hollywood called what three actresses would you see playing Raven, Valentina and Zephyr?

Sienna: I know that I had picked Zoe Saldana for Zephyr. I would love Kerry Washington to play Raven, and my ideal woman for Valentina was Lauren Hill before she disappeared from the pop scene.

SASSE: What can readers expect next from the desk of Sienna Mynx?

Sienna: I am doing a story of an older woman and younger man. A really interesting love story that I’ve never told before. Expect that soon.

SASSE: Sienna, I really enjoyed our chat. Thanks for stopping by at SASSE Sheets and sharing your book with us.
